- the invention relates to a gas barrier resin composition that exhibits excellent oxygen absorbability and further excellent adhesiveness to olefin resins and to a multi-layer structure comprising the same.
- Saponified products of an ethylene/vinyl acetate copolymer are appreciatively used as a packaging film or sheet and as a material for a container such as a bottle because they are thermoplastic, are able to be molded by various methods such as melt extrusion molding, injection molding or blow molding and have oxygen barrier properties.
